About the property

Funky & vivacious, this dog-friendly 2 bedroom craftsman is centrally-located. Set between Hillcrest and Mission Hills, our location is walkable to countless coffee shops, restaurants, and bars. We are a short drive to Downtown, Gaslamp District, Balboa Park, SD Zoo, Midway, and Coronado. This charming house is perfect for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), and your furry friends.

We are looking forward to hosting you!

Our groovy space includes 2 bedrooms with 1 king size bed and 1 queen sized bed, a funky & fun living space that will surely brighten your day, a laundry room (shared with the guests in the back house) and 1 bathroom with shower (no tub). The kitchen comes with everything you need including gas stove, microwave, and drip coffee maker. There are ceiling fans in the living room and master bedroom, as well as portable AC units in each bedroom. Wifi, Roku TV, and a designated work space makes this house the perfect retreat after a day of sight-seeing. Dining table, and outdoor seating. Parking for at least 2 cars. Along with the charm of an older Craftsman home, there are also some quirks. There are limited electrical outlets throughout the home. You must walk through the first bedroom to gain access to the second.

The entire front half of the property is yours including the private fenced front yard and multiple car driveway. There is a rear guesthouse that is separate and has its own yard. The laundry (that is part of the main house but is separate and locked off from your space) is shared common space for the use of both units.

Check-in is virtual, as you'll be provided with a digital Guest Portal and a personalized door code. Extraordinary Stays is a full-service property management company, and will be available 24-7 in case you need anything during your stay.

Hillcrest is the hub of San Diego's LGBT community and is populated by numerous locally owned businesses and specialty stores. Mission Hills is a largely residential neighborhood with a two-block strip featuring farm-to-table restaurants and local coffee shops.

If you don't want to touch a steering wheel on your vacation, we've got you covered. Our house is conveniently located and central to all that San Diego has to offer. Numerous restaurants, bars, and coffee shops are within walking distance. Effortless public transit and ride-sharing to downtown and surrounding neighborhoods. If you do have a vehicle though, the beach or harbor is only a 10-15 min quick drive. Only 2.3 miles to San Diego Zoo and 5.9 miles to SeaWorld!

Please utilize the driveway for your cars as the street parking in front of the home is by permit only.

For stays longer than 30 days, I require a deposit in the amount of one month's rent to be paid offline due 60 days prior to arrival as well as a formal lease agreement.

Your pets are welcome though we don't allow cats in this property. There is a one-time pet fee of $150 due before check-in. Please let us know if your bringing more then one pet.

Beach Equipment: despite the inclusion of snorkeling gear, we do not offer it at our rentals

The home is charming, the amenities wonderful - many beach towels, beach chairs, childrens beach/park toys, sports equiptment. Huge washer & dryer. Coffee, filters, filtered cold water, toiletries (yummy shampoo, conditioner & body wash), free delivery on 1st delivery order, air conditioners, fans galore. THE CUTEST DECORATIONS/AMBIANCE. Follow instructions - do not park on street (we fit 3 cars in the driveway) as it is permit only for hospital employees (love that as we need to support hospital staff). Aaron was professional, kind and extremely prompt towards my few questions. Also SUPER CLOSE to everywhere wonderful in San Diego.

Stayed here for my birthday weekend with friends and had a great experience! We booked the front half of a double lot, which includes two separate houses with a fun retro 70s vibe. The space has two bedrooms (one with a queen and one with a king), plus a couch that can sleep one—though note it’s not a pullout as the listing suggests. The kitchen and dining area were absolutely charming, and everything was clean and well-stocked. Aaron and his team were incredibly friendly, responsive, and respectful throughout our stay. The neighborhood felt very safe and peaceful, though it’s worth noting the property is near a major hospital, so we did hear a few ambulances at night—nothing that disrupted our time, just something to be aware of. Overall, it was the perfect home base for exploring the area and making memories. I would absolutely stay here again. Huge thanks to our wonderful host! ❤️

I had a great stay at this Hillcrest Airbnb! The location was perfect—walking distance to tons of restaurants, shops, and lively nightlife, which made exploring the neighborhood super easy and enjoyable. One of the biggest perks was having a driveway that comfortably fit two cars—definitely a huge bonus since street parking in the area can be tough. The house itself was clean, well-maintained, and tastefully decorated. It felt very welcoming and cozy, which made it a great fit for my family of three. It was also a perfect spot for our two dogs, who enjoyed the space just as much as we did. Would absolutely stay here again!
